Technical field
The present invention relates to image processing apparatus and method, more particularly to being able to suppress due to carrying out coding reconciliation to image Code caused by picture quality deterioration and thereby further increase decoding image picture quality image processing apparatus and side Method.
Background technique
Both in recent years, received as the information in the information distribution such as broadcasted and average family, widely make With the device for meeting the formats such as MPEG (motion characteristics planning), these devices using image information as digital signal at Reason, also, in order to execute efficient information transmission and storage at this moment, using the distinctive redundancy of image information come by such as Image is compressed in the orthogonal transformation and motion compensation of discrete cosine transform etc..
Particularly, MPEG2 (ISO (International Standards Organization))/IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) 13818-2) it is defined as leading to With coding format, also, be include both horizontally interlaced image and sequential scan image and standard-resolution image and The standard of high-definition image.For example, MPEG2 has been used for the application of professional purpose and the wide scope of consumer use now It is widely used.For example, passing through benefit in the case where the horizontally interlaced image of the standard resolution with 720 × 480 pixels With MPEG2 compressed format, the size of code (bit rate) of distribution 4 to 8Mbps.In addition, for example, having 1920 × 1088 pixels High-resolution horizontally interlaced image in the case where, pass through utilize MPEG2 compressed format, distribution 18 to 22Mbps size of code (bit rate), so as to realize high compression rate and excellent picture quality.
For MPEG2, it mainly is encoded to target to be suitable for the high image quality of broadcast purposes, still, does not handle ratio The low size of code (bit rate) of the size of code of MPEG1 (that is, coded format with more high compression rate).With personal digital assistant It is universal, it is envisioned that, the demand of this coded format is started to will increase from now on, also, in response to this, held The standardization of MPEG4 coded format is gone.About coding format, specification is confirmed to be international standard in December, 1998 ISO/IEC 14496-2。
In addition, in recent years, referred to as H.26L (ITU-T (ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector) Q6/16VCEG (video volume has been carried out Code expert group)) standard standardization, script be designed for video conference purposes image coding.For H.26L, it is known that Compared with the traditional code format of such as MPEG2 or MPEG4, although needing bigger calculation amount for its coding and decoding, It is to realize higher code efficiency.In addition, current, as the movable part of MPEG4, have been carried out also using not by H.26L support function (by this H.26L based on) come the standardization of realizing higher code efficiency, as enhancing compression view The conjunctive model of frequency coding.As standardized timetable, H.264 exist with MPEG-4Part10 (AVC (advanced video coding)) In March, 2003 becomes international standard.
In addition, as its extension name, the industry including such as RGB, 4:2:2 or 4:4:4,8x 8DCT (discrete cosine transform) It make sures with required encoding tool and the FRExt of the quantization matrix as defined in MPEG-2 (fidelity range extension name) is marked Standardization, so that AVC may be used as suitably expressing the coded format for the film noise for including in even film, and For the application of wide scope, for example, Blu-ray disc (Blu-ray Disc, registered trademark) etc..
However, it is current, the demand of further high compression coding is increased, for example, it is desirable to compress with conduct The image of about 4000 × 2000 pixels of four times of high visual pattern, alternatively, alternatively, being reduced the staff for further high pressure The demand of code has increased, for example, it is desirable to distribute high vision in the environment with limited transmit capacity of such as internet Image.Therefore, for the above-mentioned VCEG under the control of ITU-T, grinding about raising code efficiency has been consecutively carried out it Study carefully.
Additionally, there are the auto-adaptive loop filter (ALF (adaptive loop filters as next-generation video coding technique Device)), considering the coding techniques recently (for example, with reference to non-patent literature 1 and non-patent literature 2).According to the adaptive ring Path filter executes optimal filtering processing for each frame, is not gone completely at de-blocking filter and it is possible to reduce The block noise that removes and due to noise caused by quantization.
Now, for will be by such as UHD (ultrahigh resolution that next-generation coding method is handled;4000 × 2000 pictures Element) big picture frame, the macroblock size of 16 × 16 pixels is not optimal.It has for instance been proposed that macroblock size is amplified To the size (for example, non-patent literature 3) of such as 32 × 32 pixels or 64 × 64 pixels.

In an identical manner, input pixel classifications unit 153 is read from orthogonal transformation size buffer 151 about positive alternation It changes the information of size and obtains the information.Input pixel classifications unit 153 is executed based on the orthogonal transformation size of acquisition will be defeated The macro block classification (grouping) for entering image is to be applied with the macro block (4 × 4 orthogonal transform block) of 4 × 4 orthogonal transformations to it and apply to it The category classification of the macro block (8 × 8 orthogonal transform block) of 8 × 8 orthogonal transformations is added.Then, input pixel classifications unit 153 will be defeated The information about 4 × 4 orthogonal transform blocks for entering image is supplied to 4 × 4 pieces of coefficient calculation units 154, also, will be about 8 × 8 just The information of transform block is handed over to be supplied to 8 × 8 pieces of coefficient calculation units 155.
4 × 4 pieces of coefficient calculation units 154 use the decoding image and input picture to its 4 × 4 orthogonal transform block supplied Filter factor (for example, Wiener filtering coefficient) is calculated, so that the residual error is minimum.4 × 4 pieces of coefficient calculation units 154 will calculate Filter factor out is supplied to lossless coding unit 106, and is also supplied to the filter unit (4 × 4) of loop filter 113 162。
In an identical manner, 8 × 8 pieces of coefficient calculation units 155 use the decoding to its 8 × 8 orthogonal transform block supplied Image and input picture calculate filter factor (for example, Wiener filtering coefficient), so that the residual error is minimum.8 × 8 pieces of coefficients calculate Calculated filter factor is supplied to lossless coding unit 106 by unit 155, and is also supplied to loop filter 113 Filter unit (8 × 8) 163.
The filter factor of supply is added to coded data by lossless coding unit 106.
Now, from orthogonal transform unit 104 to the pixel classifications unit 161 of loop filter 113 supply about with it is each The information of the related orthogonal transformation size (being (4 × 4) or (8 × 8)) of a macro block.Divide from de-blocking filter 111 to its pixel The supply decoding image of class unit 161.
Pixel classifications unit 161 is held based on the information about orthogonal transformation size supplied from orthogonal transform unit 104 Be about to decode image macro block classification (grouping) be it is applied with 4 × 4 orthogonal transformations macro block (4 × 4 orthogonal transform block) and The category classification of the macro block (8 × 8 orthogonal transform block) of 8 × 8 orthogonal transformations is applied with to it.Then, pixel classifications unit 161 will The information about 4 × 4 orthogonal transform blocks of decoding image is supplied to filter unit (4 × 4) 162, also, will be orthogonal about 8 × 8 The information of transform block is supplied to filter unit (8 × 8) 163.

Filter factor computing unit 112 and loop filter 113 execute processing as described above, with orthogonal for each Transform size generates filter factor, and executes filtering processing.
It can be said that the local property in image is reflected in orthogonal transformation size.For example, for flat region (frequency The sparse part of rate), it is likely that 8 × 8 orthogonal transformations of selection, for the region (parts of closely spaced frequencies) comprising close grain, very It may select 4 × 4 orthogonal transformations.
In addition, observing different picture quality degradation trends between 8 × 8 orthogonal transformations and 4 × 4 orthogonal transformations.Example Such as, for 8 × 8 orthogonal transformations, it is easily observed that mosquito noise, and for 4 × 4 orthogonal transformations, it is not easy to observe that mosquito formula is made an uproar Sound.
Therefore, filter factor computing unit 112 is by generating filtering system for each orthogonal transformation size as described above Number carrys out the local property reflected in image in filter factor.For example, filter factor computing unit 112 can be controlled, with Just the value of filter factor is adjusted, so that the weaker filtering of part application that loop filter 113 is sparse for frequency, and for The part of closely spaced frequencies applies stronger filtering.
It note that other than the value for simply changing filter factor, filter factor computing unit 112 can also increase/ Reduce the tap number of filter.For example, the part reduction tap number that filter factor computing unit 112 is sparse for frequency, also, Tap number is increased for the part of closely spaced frequencies.Certainly, filter factor computing unit 112 can both execute the value of filter factor Adjustment, and execute increase/reduction of tap number.
In this way, filtering processing is executed using the filter factor of the local property reflected in image, thus, loop filtering Device 113 can execute the noise remove for being suitable for local property possessed by the image, and can be further improved decoding figure The picture quality of picture.
It note that in this way, having deposited as grammatical feature based on so-called orthogonal transformation size of picture coding device 100 Value execute switching, it is therefore not required to map information (map information), which is newly added to, will be sent to it filtering The coded data of coefficient therefore can be in the case where the expense in no increase coded data (in no reduction code efficiency In the case where) realize high image quality processing.
